Retired photographer and studio owner in Monroe, Louisiana. Living in the Drew Community, Louisiana, claiming Tioga, Louisiana as my home town.
It only took me sixty some odd years to finally get interested in my family's history. Thanks to the work done by my Mother, Eunice Lee Raulins Smith, I had a starting place.
My father's family were Smith,Gates, Buckelew, Brian and Rogillio, (heavy in the Rapides, Grant, and Winn Parishes in Louisiana). My mother's family were Lee, Raulins, Gatlin, and Cupit (heavy in the Franklin and Wilkinson Counties of Mississippi).
